Am      Am/G   Am
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
                 Dm                    Am
While journeying through this world of woe
               Am        Am/G     Am
Yet there's no sickness, toil nor danger
               F7  E7          Am
In that bright land to which I go

[Chorus 1]
          F               C
I'm going there to see my father
          F                 E7sus4 E
I'm going there, no more to roam
         F7                Am7
I'm only going, going over Jordan
         F7       E7       Am
I'm only going, going over home

[Verse 2]
            Am          Am/G   Am
I know dark clouds will gather o’er me
          Dm7                      Am
I know my way, my way is rough and steep
                    Am         Am/G   Am
Yeah, and beautiful fields lie just before me
           F7 E7                 Am
In God's redeeming, their vigils keep

[Chorus 2]
          F               Am
I'm going there to see my father
          F                 E7sus4 E
I'm going there, no more to roam
         F7                Am
I'm only going, going over Jordan
         F7 E7      Am
I'm only going over home

[Verse 3]
          Am        Am/G     Am
I want to wear that crown of glory
           Dm7               Am
When I get home to that good land
               Am      Am/G      Am
When I want to shout salvation's story
           F7 E7                    Am
In concert with, oh the bloodwashed band

[Chorus 4]
          F               Am7
I'm going there to see my Saviour
              F                 E7sus4 E
Oh, I'm going there, no more to roam
         F                 Am
I'm only going, going over Jordan
         F7 E7             Am
I’m only going, going over home

[Outro]
               F                 Am
Well, I'm only going, going over Jordan
               F7      E7        Am
Yeah, I'm only going, going over home
